Mo. Andersson et al., ANNEALING AND CHARGING OF SLOW AND FAST STATES IN METAL-TUNNEL OXIDE-SILICON DIODES MEASURED USING CAPACITANCE-VOLTAGE AND CURRENT-VOLTAGE TECHNIQUES, Microelectronic engineering, 22(1-4), 1993, pp. 235-238
Capacitance-voltage (C-V) techniques are used to obtain new informatio
n on the effects of post-metallization annealing and charging of ultra
-thin metal-tunnel oxide-silicon (MTOS) diodes, which we have previous
ly characterized mainly using variations in the tunnel current density
. The interrelationships between the annealing and charging and the na
ture of the defects are further illuminated in this work because of th
e ability of the C-V techniques to distinguish between charges contain
ed in slow and fast states.
